SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 245,753, dated. August16, 1881.

T 0 all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, CAROLINE SPRAGUE, of Wyandotte, county of Wyandotte,and State of Kansas, have invented certain Improvements inSleeve-Protectors, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to an improvement in sleeve protectors; and itconsists in making an extension on the protector at the inner end,whereby the protector is made to cover and protect the elbow.

It further consists in providing the protector with a pocket or pocketsfor carrying a pencil or other such article.

The accompanying drawing represehts a perspective of a sleeve-protectorembodying my invention.

open down one side it may be made to fit arms of differentsizes.

At the inner end of the protector opposite from the open side is madethe extension G, which reaches up over the elbow, so as to prevent itfrom coming in contact with the table (Model) or desk. This extensionanswers all the purpose of having the protector made much longer andeffects a considerable saving in material. On the top of this sleeve ismade one or more pockets, I, in which different articles may be carried.Where the protector is made for children at school the pocket will bedouble, so as to carry both a pen or pencil and a comb. Where theprotector is used by clerks a pocket for a pencil-case only will bemade.

It so desired, the material may be perforated so as to allow themoisture from the arm to readily escape during warm weather, and thecloth will be bound in any suitable material so as to give the protectoran attractive appearance.

Having thus described my invention, I claim 1. A sleeve-protector thatis open down one side and provided with suitable fastening devices, andhaving an extension at its inner end so as to protect the elbow,substantially as shown.

2. A sleeve-protector having an extension, G, made at the elbow,substantially as described.
